How do you connect to the internet? It looks like you are using a public
address on eth1 which I am not sure is appropriate. I would expect a
ppp0 or adsl0(?) interface which connects to the internet through your
ISP.

The public IP is correct. The machine is really on the "wild Internet"

Again, how do you connect to the internet?, my crystal ball is broken.
There has to be some device you plug into, unless your ISP ran a
v e r y l o n g cat 5 cable to your place.

Your crystal ball is not brocken, ... I DO have fix public IP addresses
here, ... if you see it as a LONG cat 5 cable or a fiber is not important.

eth1 is connected to the Internet, eth0 is connected to the LAN

sharing with /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-xxxx and route files would help to
recognize the problem
